Abstract Purpose The aim of the study is to assess the effect of intermittent pneumatic compression (IPC) on heart rate recovery and heart rate variability (HRV) after submaximal aerobic exercise in collegiate basketball players. Methods Sixteen male collegiate basketball players aged between 18 and 25 years were included in this cross-over design with two groups (IPC group and placebo-control group). All participants performed an incremental treadmill test at submaximal intensity followed by 15 min of different recovery modes application. Heart rate recovery at the first minute (HRR1) and second minute (HRR2) after submaximal exercise testing were observed. HRV measures were obtained from 5-min R-R intervals during 10 min of ECG recording before the exercise (baseline) and after 15 min recovery period post-exercise. Results HRR1 (p = 0.008) showed a significant difference, while HRR2 showed a non-significant difference between IPC and placebo-control groups. There was a significant time effect for all time- and frequency-domain HRV parameters (p
